The words of one of Manchester United CEOs Sir Jim Ratcliffe sparked a response from club head coach Ruben Amorim.
The Portuguese international spoke in an interview ahead of the second phase of the Europa League clash with Real Sociedad. Ruben Amorim accused players who were labeled “overpaid” to prove that Sir Jim Ratcliffe Worng was at the end of the season.
Ratcliffe told BBC earlier this week that Casemiro, Andre Onana, Rasmus Hojlund, Antony and Jadon Sancho “It’s not good enough, some may be overpaid.
Amorim said,
I think if we are honest at this moment, then everyone, me, all the players, we are underperforming this season, so we can change that anytime and I include myself in the underperforming part. For example, you’re talking about players like Casemiro, who win everything, and we know that players of this kind can perform better. That’s the point. He is honest about it, the point is to change his mind and change everyone’s mind. If you are the top player playing in this club, even if it’s me, a lot of people say I’m not good enough with the club, my feeling is that you can change that with the results. In training, I think it’s really bad for them to want it, especially for tomorrow. ”
Amorim also talked about his relationship with Sir Jim, who praised the Portuguese efforts.
“He said he’s been a good relationship with Ratcliff since day one. I think we’re really outspoken. He’s kind of a character, we’re very similar. [in] That. I always feel the support of the board, especially Sir Jim. I can’t tell you the conversations, but they are simple conversations, clear conversations and honest conversations. ”
During the 2022 summer transfer window, Casemiro and Antony are among the top earners. Manchester United paid Real Madrid £60 million for Casemiro, up to £70 million, who is currently making £300,000 a week while Antony makes £200,000 a week.
